Abaculi be-The Cars bangabameleli abagqamile balokho okubizwa ngokuthi "igagasi elisha ledwala". Ngokwesitayela nangokombono, amalungu ebhendi akwazile ukushiya "okuvelele" kwangaphambilini komsindo womculo we-rock.
Umlando wokudalwa nokubunjwa kweqembu Izimoto
Iqembu lasungulwa emuva ngo-1976 e-United States of America. Kodwa kwadlula iminyaka engaphezu kwengu-6 ngaphambi kokudalwa okusemthethweni kweqembu lehlelo.

Ukuphefumula okusha
Ngokushesha u-Rick no-Benjamin bakha iqembu lephrojekthi elisha elithi Richard and the Rabbit. Ngaphezu kwabagqugquzeli bemibono, uGreg Hawks ungene eqenjini. Ngemuva kwalokho, u-Ocasek no-Orr badlale njenge-acoustic duo, u-Ocasek no-Orr, e-Idler encane eCambridge. Amanye amathrekhi abafana abawaqopha njenge-duet angena ku-repertoire ye-The Cars.

Ngokushesha amanye amalungu amaningi ajoyina uhlu, okungu-Glenn Evans, kwase kuba u-Kevin Robichaux. UBenjamin wayengumculi ophambili eqenjini, ngakho wayengayidlali ibhesi.
Iqembu leCap'n Swing ligcine liqashelwe ngabalandeli bomculo oshisa izikhotha. Yake yamoyizela izinsizwa. I-WBCN disc jockey uMaxan Sartori udonse ukunaka kubo. Lo saziwayo waqala ukudlala izingoma zeqembu elidilikayo ohlelweni lwakhe.
